This really is the trillion dollar question. Sounds like there's a good chance we'll require a booster to re-up the antibodies and account for new variants, either this fall or next.Fat_Bulldog wrote: ↑March 31 21, 4:00 amI am interested in knowing how long the vaccine is effective. Do we all go back to near normal this summer only to all get quarantined and sick again come fall?

Re: Got your shot?
Another Pfizer here. 1st on Feb 9; 2nd on Mar 5. Just mild soreness for a day after 1st. Tired with headache and sinus pressure/congestion that lasted for a week or so after the 2nd - can’t say for sure there as a cause & effect there but similar symptoms for Mrs. Rad.
My guess is we will be getting annual COVID booster shots going forward.

Figured Pfizer would be the most common but a little surprised by how much.

I got the first shot of Moderna on Thursday. I was pretty wiped out yesterday. That was expected though because I still have antibodies. I got way more "sick" from the shot than I ever did from the virus itself.

Re: Got your shot?
I'll be receiving my 2nd Moderna shot on Thursday. From others who received the Moderna, they told me side effects of their 2nd had pretty much "knocked them out" for a day or 2, so I scheduled PTO on Thurs/Fri as a precaution.

Re: Got your shot?
Pfizer shot 2 rocked me for about 18 hours. At one point things were more tremors than chills. And then it was just gone as nothing happened.
